idle-timeout

idle-timeout—Set how long the CLI is inactive on a device before the user is logged out. If a user is connected to the device via an SSH connection, the SSH connection is closed after this time expires.

This command sets the CLI idle timeout on a systemwide basis, and it overrides the idle timeout you set from the CLI with the idle-timeout CLI operational command.
